It would be interesting to know what all the Seattle Aquarium and we can do together for next December. Perhaps, we could arrange to have a guest speaker, in November, give a talk on some aspect of an Exhibit that is downstairs in the Aquarium. Then, have the party in December so that people could see it....or have the speaker talk at the December party depending upon the amount of time we could have downstairs. Just some thoughts, but, I would enjoy talking to Linda if we could arrange a time. > > Thanx a bunch, btw, for taking care of all this. I think it is really great that you have done all this, it really helps build the Club up. > > Clay > > > > ---------- > > From: Cartwright, Scott C[SMTP:Scott.Cartwright@pss.boeing.com] > > Reply To: gsas-board@thekrib.com > > Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2000 10:34 AM > > To: 'gsas-board@gsas.org' > > Subject: FW: Introduction > > > > Ok gang, > > I spoke with Becky (our contact at the Seattle aquarium for event reservations) on Friday and I guess she mentioned to Linda that I wanted to find out about donating money to the aquarium.

She says we have a little leeway time before we need to save a spot since we have our meetings during the week. But then again, maybe we want to reserve it on a weekend day and advertise and we might bring in a lot of families that way..... > > ***Note (as you all know) that reserving the aquarium will cost a fair amount but it may be worth it for a party with the fish!.... ha ha :) ........ we'll have to do a good job advertising. > > Becky is going to send a receipt acknowledging that we have paid through June.

I have recently been hired by the Seattle Aquarium Society to help spearhead the fund raising campaign which will see monies raised for the new Aquarium. I also, of course, am most interested in what is happening at our current facility and was delighted to hear of a group of Aquarium aficionados associated with the current facility as represented by your organization. > > > I would love to have a chance to chat with/have coffee with you, or whoever you feel might be the most appropriate person in your organization, to learn more about GSEAS, its membership, goals, etc. My contact numbers are below. > > > Having had a chance to read a recent newsletter from your group, I am impressed by the range of activities and the connections you have made with other fund raising groups. Am looking forward to having a chance to chat with you when you have a moment. > > > With regards, Linda Dickson > > > > > > > > > > > > Linda Dickson > > > Director, Campaign Development > > > SEATTLE AQUARIUM SOCIETY > > > 1402 Third Avenue > > > Seattle, Washington 98101 > > > Phone: 206-682-3474 - ex.#12 > > > Fax: 206-682-0722 > > > E-Mail: ldickson@aquariumsociety.org > > > > > > > > >
